Buena Onda Baja Taqueria
What does a Buena Onda Baja Taqueria Franchise Cost?
If you're entrepreneurial-minded and looking for an exciting opportunity to bring good vibes and great food into your community, we invite you to partner with Iron Chef Jose Garces! Buena Onda is a fast-casual taqueria with a delicious chef-curated menu and popular Baja-style libations, and we're excited to bring our unique culinary experience to communities across the United States. Our taco franchise is not your ordinary restaurant franchise - We're founded by a James Beard award-winning chef.
About
Iron Chef, father, husband, James Beard Award-winner, entrepreneur, and food innovator, Chef Jose Garces is known as a leading culinary authority of Spanish and Latin-American food.
While he maintains his successful career owning and operating full-service restaurants, Chef Garces is also looking toward the future. He has increased his focus on bringing restaurant-quality experiences to the homes and businesses of culinary enthusiasts in new and interesting ways. From enhanced home delivery options and virtual online cooking demos, to live online cooking classes, Chef Garces is excited to connect with both fans of his work on television, as well as the home cook who’d like to experience “chef life” in their own kitchen.
As a child of immigrants and a leader in the diverse and inclusive hospitality industry, the wellbeing of his community in Philadelphia has always been dear to Chef Garces’ heart. To help provide ongoing and actionable assistance to the immigrant community, Chef Garces co-founded The Garces Foundation in 2011. The Garces Foundation provides services including community health days, English language skills classes that target the restaurant industry, and most recently, an increased focus on procuring and providing food supplies to the food insecure.
Chef Garces is the author of two cookbooks, Latin Evolution and The Latin Road Home, published by Lake Isle Press.

In Baja, Buena Onda means “Good Vibes.” Our kitchen here has gathered good vibes from the many seafood shacks, taquerias, Panga fisherman, and farmers who have sustained themselves for generations by respecting the sea, cultivating year-round produce in Baja’s rich soil, and sharing ingredient driven dishes with family and friends.
